Plank Drag (Dumbbell)

A core and chest exercise combining a plank position with lateral dumbbell drags to challenge stability and core strength.

Instructions

1. Start in a plank position with hands on dumbbells positioned under your shoulders.
2. Keep your body in a straight line from head to heels, with core engaged.
3. Drag the right dumbbell across your body toward the left side as far as comfortable.
4. Return the right dumbbell to the center.
5. Drag the left dumbbell across your body toward the right side.
6. Return to center and repeat, alternating sides.
7. Maintain strict plank form throughout without rotating hips.

Tips

• Keep your core tight and hips level throughout to prevent rotation
• Move slowly and deliberately rather than rushing through the movements
• Maintain a straight body line from head to heels
• Breathe steadily throughout the exercise; avoid holding your breath
• This exercise builds core stability and chest endurance
